Katia --
Hmm. Thanks for sharing. This is useful information for me, as I have never been dx'd with bipolar disorder but have experienced bouts of hypomania.
My primary concern is migraines, but if something else is going on too -- such as bipolar disorder -- it will be useful to know in the future. Luckily, the same meds can be used for both conditions.
